Tying together poetry, parenting, and advertising in a neat little package

Poetry Friday: “Message to Autumn”

I have to admit, I’m surprised I wrote this.

As I mentioned earlier this week, I’ve been extremely busy lately. Between the voiceover biz, my children’s writing, taking care of the kids, and helping my wife market her new business venture, I’ve barely had time to blink. (In fact, I’m considering scheduling my blinks to make sure I have time for them)

The reason I mention this is I’ve had this photo, taken by my daughter, Katherine, sitting in my computer for awhile now. She took it in November 2010 – and the poor photo has been waiting patiently for me to write a poem about it. I’m not sure why it took me so long – I just finished editing it (for now) last night – but I’m glad I can finally give it some life! And yes, I realize we’re nowhere near autumn at this point – but I thought it might be nice to share my most recent poem with you, anyway.

Nice to hear the welcome, but since it’s snowing again, I wish to say goodbye instead. I like the rhythm and voice, Matt. And, nice that you posted, know it’s been a long few months that were challenging.
